Support Requests
You are important to us, it's our pleasure and honour to receive your comments and suggestions. We have set a high quality standard for our technical support. We aim to solve problems in days or weeks, not months. We provide support by means of electronic-mail assistance. Support is limited to recording reported problems, clarifying whether reported problems are caused by errors or defects in the licensed software, and providing work-arounds and bug fix releases. It does not include tutoring in how to design or evaluate pavements. However, we can bring you into contact with qualified engineers.
Support is provided to max. two authorised representatives per customer.
Support services are free of charge within 60 days or if annual maintenance is purchased. Otherwise we offer support services at a fixed price.
Our technical support resources include an Internet electronic mail system, World Wide Web site, newsletters, product brochures, and new releases. Our web site has product patch files, new product announcements, and contains general technical information. We do not run a telephone hotline. We run a highly efficient E-mail hotline. Please submit your support requests to the following address.

We maintain a bug reporting and prioritised resolution system. We give a bug a priority based on its severity. The definition of any bug's severity is determined by whether it directly affects your ability to solve a problem. If a bug keeps you from being able to solve a problem, it receives the highest priority. If you report a bug that does not keep you from solving a problem, it receives a lower priority. Also, if we can provide a workaround to the bug, it receives a lower priority.
